Answer:
[tex]8 \ feet[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In this situation, one is given the following information. A ladder is leaning against a wall and has a measure of (17) feet. The bottom of the ladder is (15) feet away from the wall. One can infer that the wall forms a right angle with the ground. Thus, the triangle formed between the ground, ladder, and wall is a right triangle. Therefore, one can use the Pythagorean theorem. The Pythagorean theorem states the following,
[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]
Where (a) and (b) are the legs or the sides adjacent to the right angle of the right triangle. The parameter (c) represents the hypotenuse or the side opposite the right angle. In this case, the legs are the ground and wall, and the hypotenuse is the ladder. Substitute this into the formula a solve for the height of the wall.
[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]
Substitute,
[tex](ground)^2+(wall)^2=(ladder)^2\\\\(15)^2+(wall)^2=(17)^2\\[/tex]
Simplify,
[tex](15)^2+(wall)^2=(17)^2\\\\225+(wall)^2=289[/tex]
Inverse operations,
[tex]225+(wall)^2=289\\\\(wall)^2=64\\\\wall=8[/tex]

Find the probability that when a couple has children, at least one of them is a . (Assume that boys and girls are equally likely.)
Answer:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 0.875[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n = 3[/tex]
[tex]B \to boys[/tex]
[tex]G \to girls[/tex]
[tex]P(G) = P(B) = 0.5[/tex] --- equal probability
See comment for complete question
Required:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl)[/tex]
To do this, we make use of complement rule:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - P(No\ girl)[/tex]
The event that there is no girl out of the 3 children is: B B B
And the probability is:
[tex]P(No\ Girl) = P(B) * P(B) * P(B)[/tex]
[tex]P(No\ Girl) = 0.5*0.5*0.5[/tex]
[tex]P(No\ Girl) = 0.125[/tex]
So:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - P(No\ girl)[/tex]
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - 0.125[/tex]
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 0.875[/tex]

Answer:
(t, u, w) = (1, -2, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator makes short work of this, giving the solution as ...
(t, u, w) = (1, -2, -2)
__
There are many ways to solve this "by hand." Here's one of them.
Add the first and third equations. Their sum is ...
-3t +4w = -11 . . . . . [eq4]
Add this to twice the second equation. That sum is ...
(-3t +4w) +2(-4t -2w) = (-11) +2(0)
-11t = -11
t = 1
Substituting this into the second equation gives ...
-4(1) -2w = 0
w +2 = 0 . . . . divide by -2
w = -2 . . . . add -2
Substituting for t in the third equation lets us find u.
2(1) -2u = 6
-1 +u = -3 . . . . . divide by -2
u = -2 . . . . add 1
The solution is (t, u, w) = (1, -2, -2).

A 8 year old boy has 6 different toys and wants to put them all in a straight line.
In how many ways can this be done?
I would appreciate step by step, as I have no clue on how to solve. Thanks!
============================================================
Explanation:
The number 8 from "8 year old boy" can be completely ignored. In my opinion, this is an (un)intentional distraction on your teacher's part.
There are 6 toys to arrange. The order is important.
For the first slot, there are 6 choices. Then the second slot has 5 choices (we cannot have a toy occupy more than one slot at a time).The third slot has 4 choices, and so on.We have this countdown: 6,5,4,3,2,1
Those values multiply out to 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720
There are 720 ways to arrange the 6 different toys. Order matters.
---------------------
An alternative approach is to use the nPr permutation formula with n = 6 and r = 6. We use a permutation because order matters.
The nPr formula is
[tex]_{n} P _{r} = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}\\\\[/tex]
where the exclamation marks indicate factorial. For example, 6! = 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720.
Complete the information for that object by making estimates using appropriate units of measurement of the dimensions and by getting the actual measurements using an appropriate measuring instrument.

Question 4
Which term in the sequence given by n th term formula 7n - 50 has a value of 41?
th term
Answer:
13th term
Step-by-step explanation:
41 = 7n - 50
41 + 50 = 7n
91 = 7n
7n = 91
n = 91/7
n = 13
13th term has value 41
Answer:
n = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
7n - 50 = 41
Add 50 to both sides
7n = 41 + 50
7n = 91
Divide both sides by 7
n = 91/7
n = 13
the blueprint dimensions of the playground are 23/147 yd x 3/14 yd after reducing them by the factor of 2/147 what are the original dimensions if the playground in yards
Answer:
The original dimensions of the park are:
(23/2) yards by 7 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that you have a given dimension X
if you want to reduce that dimension by a scale factor k, such that:
0 < k < 1
The reduced dimension is just:
X' = k*X
Now let's solve the problem:
We know that the dimensions on the blueprint are:
(23/147)yd by (3/14)yd
And the original dimensions are:
A yd by B yd
We know that, to get the blueprint dimensions, we reduced the original dimensions by a factor of 2/147
Then we just have that:
(2/147)*A = 23/147
(2/147)*B = 3/14
Now we just can solve these two equations for A and B
A = (23/147)*(147/2) = 23/2
B = (3/14)*(2/147) = (3/7)*(1/147) = 49/7 = 7
Then the original dimensions of the park are:
(23/2) yards by 7 yards.
Determine the nature of the roots: 4x2 + 13x + 6 = 0
a. no real solutions
b. cannot be determined
C. a unique real solution
two distinct real solutions d. two distinct real solutions
Answer:
D. is the correct option
Discriminant is greater than zero, so the roots are unequal and real.
Step-by-step explanation:
We use discriminant to find the nature of the roots
discriminant formula is, b^2 - 4ac
13^2 (-4) × 4 × 6 = 169-96
73 >0
if discriminant greater than 0 that means the roots are real and unequal.
The radius of a right circular cone is increasing at a rate of 1.4 in/s while its height is decreasing at a rate of 2.4 in/s. At what rate is the volume of the cone changing when the radius is 140 in. and the height is 186 in.
Answer:
The volume is increasing at a rate of 27093 cubic inches per second.
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cone:
THe volume of a cone, with radius r and height h, is given by:
[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h[/tex]
In this question:
We have to differentiate implictly is function of t, so the three variables, V, r and h, are differenciated. So
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi r^2}{3}\frac{dh}{dt} + \frac{2\pi rh}{3}\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]
The radius of a right circular cone is increasing at a rate of 1.4 in/s while its height is decreasing at a rate of 2.4 in/s.
This means that [tex]\frac{dr}{dt} = 1.4, \frac{dh}{dt} = -2.4[/tex]
Radius is 140 in. and the height is 186 in.
This means that [tex]r = 140, h = 186[/tex]
At what rate is the volume of the cone changing?
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi r^2}{3}\frac{dh}{dt} + \frac{2\pi rh}{3}\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi (140)^2}{3}(-2.4) + \frac{2\pi 140*186}{3}1.4[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = -0.8\pi(140)^2 + 62*2\pi*1.4*140[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = 27093[/tex]
Positive, so increasing.
The volume is increasing at a rate of 27093 cubic inches per second.

From f(x) to k(x), the graphed parabola is stretched and wider.
Answer: Choice B) Vertically compressed by a factor of 8.
Explanation:
Consider a point like (8,64) which is on f(x).
If we plug in x = 8 into k(x), then we would get k(8) = 8. The old output y = 64 is now y = 8. This is an example of a vertical compression of 8. It's 8 times smaller in the vertical direction compared to what it used to be. This is because the k(x) outputs are 1/8 those of the f(x) outputs.
Effectively we have k(x) = (1/8)*f(x).
Another example would be x = 16 leading to y = 256 on f(x). For k(x), we have x = 16 lead to y = 32
Refer to the graph below.
Assume the random variable X is normally distributed, with mean = 54 and standard deviation o = 8. Find the 15th percentile.
Answer:
45.712
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the Zscore of the area of 15 percent of the distribution ; using a Z table or calculator ;
Zscore of 15% of the distribution is : - 1.036
Using the Zscore formula :
Zscore = (x - mean) / standard deviation
Where, x = score
-1.036 = (x - 54) / 8
Cross multiply
-1.036 * 8 = x - 54
-1.288 = x - 54
x = - 8.288 + 54
x = 45.712
